Pulling the trans for service...

Okay, we are ready to send the trans to Six Speeds Inc. to get rebuilt. Reverse keeps popping out, and there is a minor leak at the input shaft. This is a 2002 LS1/T56 in our 67 Camaro.

What I am dying to know is can we just unbolt the trans from the bellhousing and pull it out, or do we have to pull the bellhousing also? There is not a lot of clearance for pulling the top bolts on the bellhousing, and I cannot for the life of me remember is the slave bolts into the trans or just into the bellhousing. That would make this job a lot easier, since we don't have to send the bellhousing to Six Speeds...

If you are just rebuilding the trans and that's all, just unbolt the trans from the bell housing. Yes the Salve is bolted to trans with 2 10mm bolts or 2 8mm bolts--hope this helps!

+1 the clutch swap sticky is all you need to check out. leave the bellhousing. 10mm for the slave
